Funny guy. Serious results.

Jamal spent eight years making strangers laugh in comedy clubs, then ten years studying why happy teams win. Now he brings both to the stage.

His keynotes mix big laughs with real research on energy, belonging and burnout, and every audience leaves with simple habits they will actually use on Monday morning.
